Well done Aces for the past weekend’s events.

Caldey to Tenby 2.7-mile approx swim: Hayden Johns (first swimmer back only because he used my turbo buoy - saying that, it doesn’t work for me!), Andy Adamson, Iain Rich, Donna Bradley, Lauren Johns, Richard Day, also well done to Peter Brace, Alexandra Merrony and Sarah Hempenstall who swim with us.

Cheque presentation: The sum of £600 was raised over the summer by the club for the Withybush Hospital cancer day care unit. Aces member Nicole Ferguson presented the cheque to haemato-oncology nurse Jan Bower, along with staff nurse Jenny and Sister Gina Beard, lead cancer nurse for Hywel Dda.
